Blade Brother Storm Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 So it's already cannon that the Minotaurs are a chimeric chapter but I'm curious what the common opinion is, if anyone else has thought of an idea to make a Chimeric chapter?

Conn Eremon Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 What are Chimeric Chapters? Chapters of two or more genetic origins. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286754-chimeric-chapters/#findComment-3592567 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherCaptainArkhan Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Whatwhatwhat? I thought Minotaurs were World Eater geneseed only. AFAIK chimeric geneseed has been a no-no since the Cursed Founding. When did the Minotaurs become confirmed as dual heritage?

XKhalilX Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 if minotaurs are chimeric geneseed, what exactly is the spliced combo? ive never read anywhere that they were confirmed to be world eaters, but that DEFINITELY makes sense when you think about it. Mmaybe they doubled up on the traitor seed and made them half Word Bearer as well, they seem pretty insanely loyal to the High Lords.

Blade Brother Storm Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 From what I've read in both the wiki and lexicon, they've both said that the Minotaurs are Chimeric. As for what the dual gene-seed is I haven't seen any speculation as to what they are. Though if there are Loyalist "World Eaters" then I just blew a gasket. Reason I'm asking is that I haven't deceided who I want my chapter to come from because I'm on the fence for either Black Templars and Dark Angels. I was kicking around the idea of trying to find a justifiable way how this would work and thought a cool story would be for a group of Templars to come across a Fallen while helping the Dark Angels, using the story of Asmodai as kind of a reference, but as I sat here at work mulling it over, as much as I want it to work I can see it more easily that Black Templars would just end up dead just to keep the secret of the Fallen. =/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286754-chimeric-chapters/#findComment-3593174 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightrawenII Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Don't confuse nature with nurture; the Chapter with BT&DA gene-seed wouldn't end up as mishmash of Black Templars and Dark Angels. Most of what constitutes these Chapters is derived from their traditions, beliefs and values etc. In other words, you will need training cadre from both Chapters, which is something very unlikely. Also, Black Templars wouldn't be killed because of the Fallen. They will just disappear en route to another battle. Malfunction of gellar field or something, happens a lot. *shrug* ~ NightrawenII Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286754-chimeric-chapters/#findComment-3593279 Share on other sites More sharing options...
